Pórtico da Gloria by Jenaro Pérez Villaamil in 1849. On the painting one can see polychromed reliefs. This could suggest that at that time some statues were polychromed (painted), in contrast with today. Actually, the so-called Romantic painters of that time in Europe, preferred in some of their paintings to further beautify some of the details in the buildings.
